    I would get that rabies shot at least. It’s incurable when symptoms start, an absolute miserable way to go, you might not even notice that you got a bat bite while sleeping, and it’s prevalent in wildlife you can’t control - and prevalent in nearly all countries except most western european states (and even there sometimes cases pop up).

      I was advised by the nurse that as long as we’re within 24 hours of a major hospital (family and me) they can pump us full of antibodies and we should be fine. And also not to pet dogs, cats, monkeys etc.
